This hasn't been true for a long time now, more so for major routes.
Just to check, I looked up prices for flights from LAX-JFK and compared them to a flight from Vancouver to Toronto, both in the middle of July.
The Canadian flight was $18 cheaper, if you exclude low cost carriers. If you include LCCs, the Canadian option was about 10% more expensive.
Canadian oligopolies are very real and exist in telecom, grocery, banking, energy and mass media, the airline industry has gotten slightly better over the past decade
